Charles Manson was a 1960s serial killer and cult leader whose most famous crime was ordering the murder of Sharon Tate. He brain-washed a devoted group of followers into various murders, with the hope of starting a race war and being the leader of the post-apocalyptic world he said the war would create.[1] He held notions commonly regarded as ludicrous; for example, he believed that the Beatles were his disciples, and their song "Helter Skelter" inspired his idea. He has since come up for parole many times, but has been denied each time.
In April 2011, Manson broke a 20-year silence to make nonsensical remarks about the global warming scam and supposed human damage to the environment. [2]
